About this home
8117 BRIGHTON DRIVE
Experience waterfront luxury in this masterfully designed 2,758-square-foot residence, where modern sophistication meets the relaxed rhythm of the Gulf coast. The journey begins in the grand foyer, where maritime-inspired accents and arched transoms set a sophisticated tone that carries throughout the home. Anchored by wide-plank flooring and soaring ceilings, the expansive open-concept great room is centered around a minimalist fireplace with a custom white oak surround, flanked by oversized sliders leading to a breezy covered balcony. The heart of the home is a chef’s domain, featuring a large gourmet kitchen equipped with KraftMaid white-and-gray shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, and a stainless hood vent—all fueled by a 250-gallon in-ground propane tank, also with a dedicated grill hookup. A vast wraparound island provides seating for four, while custom integrated shelving offers a unique touch for the culinary enthusiast. This level also features a dining area illuminated by designer lighting, creating a perfect backdrop for hosting dinners with panoramic views of the Cotee River and the Gulf. For those who balance work and play, the floor plan includes four generously sized bedrooms and a private, quiet office with a dedicated mini-split system for personalized comfort. With over 1,000 square feet of expansive decks and a dumbwaiter shaft designed larger than required to easily accommodate a future elevator, the home is as functional as it is beautiful. Modern efficiency is at the forefront with an owned 8.7kW solar system, while designer "propeller" ceiling fans and strategic architectural lighting ensure no detail has been overlooked. The luxury extends outdoors to a private resort-style oasis featuring a heated pool framed by elegant pavers and weather-proof speakers that complement the second-level surround sound. Situated on a canal with a private dock and 10k lb boat lift, this property is the ultimate boater’s retreat. After a day on the waves exploring the famous fish camps at the mouth of the river, retreat to the custom-built waterfront fire pit for sunset cocktails. The massive covered patio area under the home’s footprint provides a shaded sanctuary for outdoor lounging regardless of the weather. Whether you are traveling by boat or bike to nearby marinas and waterfront dining, this home offers an unparalleled lifestyle in a premier coastal setting.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
